Hey Guys, it's been a while since I've had an update. Sorry again. Lol. I'm horrible at this build thread stuff. I've been unable to work on the wagon for the past month due to vacation/busy. But this weekend I've had some pretty good progress. I'll post some pictures up when I get home to my computer! I'm just about done with shaving the bay, and have collected a few more parts
yes i'm uploading some pictures right now for some updates finally! haha. and i'll post a few pics of the bay in a few mins driftin90. i have a million and one little projects while i have like 3 or 4 HUUUUGE projects so its tough to always get pictures...
just a few more parts i've added to the list, still have a ton of junk to buy!
Let me catch you up on the past month or so of work, I'm extremely lazy when it comes to uploading pictures lol... without further adue... :arrow:
poor little bird must have gotten stuck in the shop in the 110 degree weather...
Dead tie rod ends...
bye, bye sound deadening. I'm thinking dynamat will suffice
sorry charb, i had to steal your picture lol.
getting some sanding done.
me gettin' in on some action. 8)
takin' her for a spin!
tomorrow i'll be getting a few small projects done hopefully, but i'll be cutting it short so that i can make it to the eibach meet. i wish the wagon was done, but i know it'll be worth the wait!
didn't get much done this weekend, just prepped a few things... and next weekend i'll be in VEGAS!!!! so no work will be done for another 2 weeks, but i'll be dropping a few pieces of the suspension components off to the powder coater(trailing arms, forks, spindles, top hats, and front lcas) to get a fresh coat of black!
but i have another parts update....
ARP extended studs
EBC greenstuff pads
EBC slotted/dimpled rotors(integra upgrade)
Goodridge SS brake lines all around, for the rear disc conversion
and i can't forget one of the biggest/newest additions...
well i've been looking for a very long time my friend... i've had my wagon about 2 years now. if you want to find GOOD parts it takes patience... you won't find readily available parts for a wagon like any other honda. i'd say my advice is have some dedication...i believe there was a rhd clip on ebay a few weeks ago? i'm not sure if it sold...
This build is ridiculous! How long has it been since the day you ripped it down till today and how much longer do you suspect it will take? Assuming you work on it at the same pace? Not that I would ever attempt this, i'm just stunned at the effort you boys are throwing at this shuttle. Impressive! Good job man. Wish I had some guys around my way to help out with my projects like this here. Truly awesome!
@alaskab16... I started ripping it down in January or february... it won't be "done" for at least a few more months. I'm still doing the conversion myself.(have to weld rhd firewall in) I only wwork on it maybe once a week. But I'm not rushing, I want it to come out nice. Thanks for the compliments!
